Clydesdales?

What would happen if a guy like me (5' 10", 145lbs.) bought and rode a bike designed for clydesdales. The bike in question is a Kona Hoss, and it looks to me like it would be fine, but is there really any reason for a smaller guy to not buy a clydesdale?

That bike, in 2002 and earlier was actually a freeride HT. Burly and tough, it was a ht build for good sized hits and very rough riding. It would in fact be heavier but there is no reason you can ride one.

Its a pretty good marketting trick really.

I think he meant "can't"

Yeah, to market a freeride HT as simply a tough bike, very nice. Especially when the market is going in the direction of FS freeride bikes. Don't scrap a design, and achieve reputation as a tough bike.
